The Quarterback and Cheerleader: How to Make Your Marriage Work

A successful marriage takes two committed people who are on the same team.

 

 In this episode, you will learn: 

1. How Logan and Katie's relationship started out as a quarterback/cheerleader but then transitioned to quarterback/fullback
2. The importance of having a shared belief system and complementary parenting strategy in a marriage
3. The benefits of making autonomous decisions and respecting each other's opinions in a marriage
   
   

   "And so it's funny because that's not the way our relationship started out at all."

   
   

   I get asked all the time how I got my wife to work with me and be so involved in my business. It's funny because that's not how our relationship started out. I met Katie in 2014 and I had just started my business. I was reading this book called Think and Grow Rich and there was a chapter called Sex Transmutation. In that chapter, Napoleon Hill talks about how men have this innate desire to chase women and how that can distract them from their goals. I related to that story and it made me realize that I needed to find someone to settle down with. I started looking for someone who I could spend the rest of my life with and that's how I found Katie. We dated for a while and then I proposed to her.
